Analytical and approximate solutions of(2+1)-dimensional time-fractional Burgers-Kadomtsev-Petviashvili equation

In this paper, we applied the sub-equation method to obtain a new exact solution set for the extended version of the time-fractional Kadomtsev-Petviashvili equation, namely BurgersKadomtsev-Petviashvili equation(Burgers-K-P) that arises in shallow water waves.Furthermore, using the residual power series method(RPSM), approximate solutions of the equation were obtained with the help of the Mathematica symbolic computation package. We also presented a few graphical illustrations for some surfaces. The fractional derivatives were considered in the conformable sense. All of the obtained solutions were replaced back in the governing equation to check and ensure the reliability of the method. The numerical outcomes confirmed that both methods are simple, robust and effective to achieve exact and approximate solutions of nonlinear fractional differential equations.     

Brownian motion and thermophoresis effects on unsteady stagnation point flow of Eyring-Powell nanofluid: a Galerkin approach

This article concerns the analysis of an unsteady stagnation point flow of Eyring-Powell nanofluid over a stretching sheet. The influence of thermophoresis and Brownian motion is also considered in transport equations. The nonlinear ODE set is obtained from the governing nonlinear equations via suitable transformations. The numerical experiments are performed using the Galerkin scheme. A tabular form comparison analysis of outcomes attained via the Galerkin approach and numerical scheme (RK-4) is available to show the credibility of the Galerkin method. The numerical exploration is carried out for various governing parameters, namely, Brownian motion, steadiness, thermophoresis, stretching ratio, velocity slip, concentration slip, thermal slip, and fluid parameters, and Hartmann, Prandtl and Schmidt numbers. The velocity of fluid enhances with an increase in fluid and magnetic parameters for the case of opposing, but the behavior is reversed for assisting cases. The Brownian motion and thermophoresis parameters cause an increase in temperature for both cases (assisting and opposing). The Brownian motion parameter provides a drop-in concentration while an increase is noticed for the thermophoresis parameter. All the outcomes and the behavior of emerging parameters are illustrated graphically. The comparison analysis and graphical plots endorse the appropriateness of the Galerkin method. It is concluded that said method could be extended to other problems of a complex nature.     

Dynamical Analysis of a New Chaotic Fractional Discrete-Time System and Its Control

This article proposes a new fractional-order discrete-time chaotic system, without equilibria, included two quadratic nonlinearities terms. The dynamics of this system were experimentally investigated via bifurcation diagrams and largest Lyapunov exponent. Besides, some chaotic tests such as the 0–1 test and approximate entropy (ApEn) were included to detect the performance of our numerical results. Furthermore, a valid control method of stabilization is introduced to regulate the proposed system in such a way as to force all its states to adaptively tend toward the equilibrium point at zero. All theoretical findings in this work have been verified numerically using MATLAB software package.

Fractional pyrolysis of Cyanobacteria from water blooms over HZSM-5 for high quality bio-oil production

Fractional pyrolysis and one-step pyrolysis of natural algae Cyanobacteria from Taihu Lake were comparatively studied from 200 to 500 ℃. One-step pyrolysis produced bio-oil with complex composition and low high heating value （HHV〈30.9 MJ/kg）. Fractional pyrolysis separated the degradation of different components in Cyanobacteria and improved the selectivity to products in bio-oil. That is, acids at 200 ℃, amides and acids at 300 ℃, phenols and nitriles at 400 ℃, and phenols at 500 ℃, were got as main products, respectively. HZSM-5 could promote the dehydration, cracking and aromatization of pyrolytic intermediates in fractional pyrolysis. At optimal HZSM-5 catalyst dosage of 1.0 g, the selectivity to products and the quality of bio-oil were improved obviously. The main products in bio-oil changed to nitriles （47.2%） at 300 ℃, indoles （51.3%） and phenols （36.3%） at 400 ℃. The oxygen content was reduced to 7.2 wt% and 9.4 wt%, and the HHV was raised to 38.1 and 37.3 MJ/kg at 300 and 400 ℃, respectively. Fractional catalytic pyrolysis was proposed to be an efficient method not only to provide a potential solution for alleviating environmental pressure from water blooms, but also to improve the selectivity to products and obtain high quality bio-oil.     

微液滴在仿蛛丝结构TiO2纤维表面的定向运动与粘附

制备了具有响应性的仿蛛丝周期纺锤节TiO₂纤维。通过改变纤维表面微观结构、紫外光照和超声波等手段,仿蛛丝结构TiO₂纤维表面浸润性会发生响应性变化。纤维表面的这种浸润性变化,不仅实现了水滴从纺锤节两端到中心处的定向运动,而且可以使得水滴被纤维纺锤节粘附。当仿蛛丝结构TiO₂纤维表面为亲水状态时,无论纺锤节光滑还是粗糙,水都是从纺锤节两端向中心方向运动;当仿蛛丝TiO₂纤维表面疏水时,水滴会被具有粗糙表面的纺锤节两端粘附。     

基底界面效应对聚苯乙烯薄膜分子运动行为的影响

本文研究了Si／Si02、Si／Si—H基底与聚苯乙烯（Ps）之间的界面相互作用对Ps薄膜的玻璃化转变及相关力学性能的影响．结果显示,无论何种基底,Ps薄膜的玻璃化转变温度（L）都随其厚度降低而降低．但相同厚度（〈110nm）下,以Si／Si-H为基底时Ps薄膜的瓦比以Si／Si02为基底的PS薄膜高．Si／Si02表面Ps薄膜疋开始下降的临界厚度为110nm,远高于以Si／Si—H为基底时的40nm．对Ps薄膜的膨胀系数和弹性模量进行研究,也得到相似的临界厚度．另外,与Si／Si02基底相比,在Si／Si-H上的Ps薄膜具有更低的膨胀系数以及较高弹性模量．可能原因是Si／Si-H与Ps具有较强的相互作用,限制了该界面分子的运动能力,导致基底／PS界面效应对薄膜分子运动的影响力增强,造成该薄膜瓦的厚度依赖性下降,并呈现出相对较硬的力学特征．     

Dynamics of two elliptical particles sedimentation in a vertical channel: chaotic state

The LB-DF/FD method derived from the Lattice Boltzmann Method and direct forcing/fictitious domain method is used to numerically investigate the dynamics and interaction of two elliptical particles settling in an infinitely long channel. One particle (EP0) is initially kept horizontal (major axis perpendicular to sedimentation) for all simulations while the other's (EP1) orientation is varied. It is found that if EP1strays away from horizontality, the particles undergo transitions from a steady state to reach a chaotic state. Furthermore, there are two distinct chaotic states for the particle motion when EP1 orientation is varied, in which a turning point is observed to distinguish the two states.     

流变岩体中让压支护作用下隧道力学行为研究

高地应力深埋软岩隧道大变形问题已成为隧道工程建设领域的突出难题. 根据高地应力深埋软岩隧道的变形特征, 基于"围岩能量吸收、变形释放"的让压支护是解决软岩隧道大变形问题的有效方法. 针对流变岩体中深埋圆形隧道在让压支护作用下的力学响应问题, 通过引入分数阶微积分理论, 采用Abel黏壶元件建立了改进的分数阶Burgers蠕变模型来表征围岩的时效变形. 此外, 通过在让压支护不同变形阶段引入刚度修正系数, 克服了传统支护未能考虑围岩变形释放的问题. 据此, 本文推导了在考虑支护延迟安装影响下, 不同变形阶段围岩与让压支护相互作用的解析解. 为了验证理论研究的正确性, 对一算例进行了不同解答及工程结果的比对, 吻合较好. 最后, 参数研究结果表明: 围岩与让压支护间的相互作用受蠕变本构模型分数阶阶数影响较大. 隧道的位移或支护压力与让压位移、支护刚度修正系数间存在线性比例关系, 但由于刚度修正系数仅保持在较小的变化范围内, 隧道的位移或支护压力变化并不显著.      

Performance enhancement of a DC-operated micropump with electroosmosis in a hybrid nanofluid: fractional Cattaneo heat flux problem

The purpose of this investigation is to theoretically shed some light on the effect of the unsteady electroosmotic flow (EOF) of an incompressible fractional second-grade fluid with low-dense mixtures of two spherical nanoparticles, copper, and titanium. The flow of the hybrid nanofluid takes place through a vertical micro-channel. A fractional Cattaneo model with heat conduction is considered. For the DC-operated micropump, the Lorentz force is responsible for the pressure difference through the microchannel. The Debye-Hükel approximation is utilized to linearize the charge density. The semi-analytical solutions for the velocity and heat equations are obtained with the Laplace and finite Fourier sine transforms and their numerical inverses. In addition to the analytical procedures, a numerical algorithm based on the finite difference method is introduced for the given domain. A comparison between the two solutions is presented. The variations of the velocity heat transfer against the enhancements in the pertinent parameters are thoroughly investigated graphically. It is noticed that the fractional-order parameter provides a crucial memory effect on the fluid and temperature fields. The present work has theoretical implications for biofluid-based microfluidic transport systems.
